Courtney hates letting things go to waste. As she says at A Diamond in the Stuff, “If I think that I can come up with a use for it, I’ll hold onto it. Sometimes for a very long time.” Hmmm . . . I’m sure none of us can identify with that at all, right? After a sewing table project, Courtney had a ton of leftover yard stick remnants. And of course she couldn’t just throw them away (of course) so she turned them into a yard stick serving tray!
Courtney had some wooden serving trays stashed away waiting for her to think of “something awesome to do with them.” She “pieced in sections of the yard sticks one by one and trimmed up some pieces where I needed to.” She repainted the tray with chalk paint, then glued all the sticks into place. Courtney used a few coats of polycrylic over the top of the yard sticks to smooth them out and fill in small gaps. I know it was time consuming to trim down all those sticks, but the final project is gorgeous!
